The armed teacher protocol would introduce firearms into classrooms yes but they would be secured in the teachers person at all times. The teachers would have to undergo training to properly handle weapon systems though. With this training they would be able to respond to emergency situations much easier than throwing books and staplers at someone carrying a firearm.

I disagree with this idea. While giving a teacher a firearm in order to protect their students sounds like a good idea, it wouldn't solve anything. For instance, an AK-47 causes a higher number of damage to the human body than an pistol would which is mainly caused by the speed of bullets releasing from the weapon. A shooter could also be armed with bullet-proof clothing while school educators have nothing on to protect them so even if a teacher would be able to shoot the gunman, chances are it would cause no effect to the shooter. Also, what if a teacher is slowly losing their mind due to stress and other issues in their own life? Who's to say that, that teacher wouldn't pull out their weapon and start firing?

The plan isn’t foolproof yet because I’ve thought about it for around 3 minutes. But if a student is bringing in a high caliber weapon into a school building hiding that isn’t going to be an easy task. Possibly hiring security personnel as well as arming teachers could prevent danger from even entering the building.
